Shout-out to Dylan D. for welcoming us into Houston tonight with the best seafood boil experience ever!!!!! Every time I visit the city, y'all already know that Crawfish Cafe is my first stop after the airport and last stop before I go home.
This is my favorite crawfish joint in the entire country, but my first time at this location. The wait was a bit longer than I'm used to, but it's understandable for a Friday evening. I highly recommend adding your name to their Yelp wait list from the app before heading there. Learn from our experience, LMAO.
I got Combo #1 with The Mix sauce, medium spicy level, and a pineapple sausage add-on. We got an order of Cajun fries and hush puppies for the table as well, but honestly it was more than enough food.

Amazing experience from start to finish! The crawfish were packed with flavor and perfectly seasoned — every bite had the right amount of spice and seasoning. The fried shrimp were crispy and fresh, and the oysters were absolutely incredible with rich buttery flavor. Everything tasted fresh and came out hot. The service was great, the atmosphere was welcoming, and you can tell they take pride in their food. Definitely one of the best seafood spots I’ve been to and I’ll be coming back for more. Highly recommend!

Our family usually goes to crawfish cafe in Chinatown houston, but we wanted to try one closer to home, and this location did not disappoint.
The Crawfish was full of flavor, we got 2lbs of The Grail (Mild), 3lbs of The Signature (Spicy), and 1lb of The Signature (Reaper). A dozen Chargrilled Oysters, that were too good to stop eating, and Crawfish fried rice that our whole family loved.
My alcoholic beverage was made perfectly. I had a Lychee Mai Tai.
My son and daughter had a dragon fruit tea and Lychee lemonade.
My husband DosXX dressed.
My mother had iced tea and it was sweet but a good sweet not overly sweet.
The service was outstanding, we had Jr as our server and he was always checkin up on us.
The bathrooms were clean, and they had an area you can clean your hands if you ate any crab or crawfish boil without gloves.
I will say the downfall is the parking lot was packed hard to find a spot. The restaurant was also packed we had a 45 minute wait but for us it was worth it!
Definitely recommend 10/10 one of the best places in Houston to get some good flavorful Crawfish. 🦞🦪🍛🍹😊

The food and service was so good yesterday that we came back today. We had our same server Rendell, who was great both days . (we will request him everytime) Everyone was friendly and had a great attitude. Today we had more crawfish which was still great. We tried another seasoning, loved it. We added muscles to the order this time and wings. Of course I had my crawfish bread again, its addictive. We love the food here, the atmosphere, and the staff. We found our new spot.
